"We all know the issues around the Spanish team. It really hurts me, as a coach, as a mother of two daughters, as a wife and as a human being."

"It shows the game has grown so much, but there’s also still a long way to go in women’s football and in society."

"I would like to dedicate this award to the Spanish team. This team deserves to be celebrated and deserves to be listened to. And I’m going to give them, again, a big applause."

Sarina Wiegman,
England

Sarina Wiegman shines light on Spain in UEFA Coach of the Year speech - Just Women's Sports

Just Women's Sports

Sarina Wiegman, England Women's Football Coach, last night dedicated her U.E.F.A. Women's Coach of the Year award to the Spanish Women's Team.

It's fair to say Wiegman is understated, so her words this time are loud and clear, on stage in front of the whole of the footballing world and U.E.F.A. She speaks for the whole of English women's football, and England too.

The Spanish women's team deserves to be celebrated, and deserves to be listened to.
